Compliance Process

Safety is our priority

Due to the fact that the decisions of our candidates effect service users lives, our compliance checks are not only in-depth but also highly rigorous. This enables us to have the confidence in every candidate that we place.

Our compliance process, includes occupational health screening, mandatory training and Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) checks. In addition we also hold regular compliance events throughout the UK, which enable you to meet the team and complete all the documentation necessary to start working with us.

What’s more, we go out of our way to make the compliance assurance process as quick and easy as possible. Our checks include:

  • Proof of identity
  • Detailed interviews
  • Full reference checks – both academic and professional
  • Skill checks
  • Enhanced DBS (formerly CRB Screens)
  • Occupational health checks
  • Right-to-work checks
